Not related to Torque but just for curiosity, why did you call this team
pkg-escience ?
There was a time when I was seriously interested to have Taverna packaged
for Debian. And Taverna is one of the icons of the eScience "movement". It
is on alioth such that everyone interested can contribute.
The packaging of Taverna is however difficult, I ran into bugs when
substituting the distributed .jar files with my self-compiled ones, and
nobody could suggest what version of the respective .jars to take. It would
probably help the community to get this all sorted out, I have hence not
removed those bits from the server, but it will probably wait for my
retirement to happen.
Since then, the pkg-escience project became a "let's not disturb anyone"
kind of meeting place for various technical applications.
